I’m surprised that was such a well made bag. Gucci has developed a reputation of being relatively low quality for a luxury brand. This bag shows otherwise.
well, the guy may have rated it generously. the cardboard is a bit offputting to me, and I don't know if the guy was able to judge whether the lamination would be durable. and that thick plastic on the leather certainly wasn't "minimal finish", even if what was underneath was real leather surface grain rather than a split leather surface.
Low quality? I’ve actually never heard of Gucci being accused of low quality. I think some people think the brand is tacky and loud but not bad quality
@@yveje9720 I think most people, when they refer to the low quality, are referring to the outlet bags, which there isn't a real way to distinguish the two together. Gucci products, from my experience, have pretty good quality. Definitely not top materials, but the construction is extremely good
@@EricPetersen2922This is the first time I heard someone mentioning Versace's quality slipping. Are you referring to the designs or the quality of the products? From my experience, they seem decently made. I love Gianni's vintage bags, but I don't believe they have the quality as modern Versace products do today. Just my experience, ofc
His videos make me really appreciate craftsmanship. I will purchase based on quality and craftsmanship over brand recognition . I purchased my first preowned Ferragamo bag from eBay based on his recommendation on the brand.

advertisement, fashion shows, highly payed designers. and I think the cost estimate was for asian production, which may or may not be where gucci has those particular bags made. I would guess that they are made in asia, I think the big fashion brands have most of their production volume made in asia, and only run small productions for their highest grade products in places like italy.
I still love my LV reverse monogram HIDUPZ clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other one is a $40 one LYXBAG Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym

I think if girls have a buying habit, they will always want to buy more. It is a waste if they buy things often but never arrive or use them very little. Buy what you need in your daily life. Buying a *preluxz* counterfeit bag is enough for daily use. It's a waste of money to always buy genuine bags
I stick with my Prada nylon fanny pack, or I prefer an older fanny pack. But you were the first person who made me really love this awesome travel bag. It fits inside like a small bag HIDUPZ
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the niceshopx leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.

I'm very happy with the *rrcopys* package. Beautiful storage compartments. Looks and feels like leather. The shoulder straps and zipper are of high quality. Very happy with the purchase.
Me remembering nearly all the bags from the jag collection in HIDUPZ other apartment on the dimond tray.. I think i watched that video like 40 times. Purse collection goals
The *rrcopys* bags are gorgeous in their size, weight and color. Bought pink, cream and blue. I think I might go back and order the light lilac, light blue and red. I own some high priced designer handbags, but I like these even more!
“When I step out of the house, I tend to look a little more elegant, and with the bag I bought at *unidups* , I am the most dazzling star on the street!

The material of the *preluxz* bag shoulder strap is also very soft and comfortable, so you will not feel uncomfortable even if you carry it for a long time.
Any luxury brand name is never worth it as far as functionality goes. You're only getting value from these things if you have social circles that judge you on them and you consider it a good use of money to keep those social circles from looking down on you.
haha thats one way to look at it, though that depends on what part of the world you live in: i doubt most people are vapid socialites. I used to work in high end retail and I knew a of of people who bought luxury to feel fashionable or trendy. A lot of customers buy luxury for themselves too; if your spending that kind of money you better enjoy your purchase at the end of the day regardless of who you hang with.
I think the mid-tier luxury brands can be worth it though because the craftsmanship and materials for these brands are often excellent. I have a Coach backpack that was the only bag I owned for 3 years ( I have since* bought a briefcase for work) whilst I was commuting on public transit to school and work. This thing went everywhere with me and it is in fantastic condition. The seams and colour have all held up even as I continue to use it. Contrastingly, I have many friends and classmates who bought and wore out multiple purses and backpacks within the same amount of time (frayed edges, ripped stitching, faded colour, discoloured hardware, etc.) and they paid for knock-off or cheap brands. I'm not saying that these bags are the only way to get what you want (if you take care of your bags or they don't see much of the world then maybe you don't need to go up in price range, for example). However for those of us who want to have bags that are a functional investment and overall, last much longer so that we reduce waste, paying for a brand that has a reputation for quality work is definitely sensible and not necessarily about social clout.

I have one LYXBAG bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...
This is why I draw the line at Coach, Marc Jacobs, and Michael Kors. These other high end brands are just charging you for the luxury of wearing THEIR name! I think this has to be the greatest con to ever exist. $100 worth of materials and labor to then charge over $1,000! 😮
After seeing this and similar videos, yes, I agree with you. When I buy a good bag, especially one made from leather, I look towards quality rather than name brand. I again agree with you with your choice of brand names. I won’t go further than those brands, too. I witnessed this on a trip to Mexico. I saw some real awesome bags with sturdy high quality leather at a fraction of those high end bags. I bought one and some of my coworkers were jealous of how much I paid for my bag. Great comment from you.
Me too. Coach here and so is my family. If I want any other quality, I’ll just go to Mexico, where I know I can get a great quality bag at a fraction of the high end prices.
It's a weird feeling, you want something and watch it being made but you know in your heart you can never touch it let alone own it, but here *unidups* you can have your dreams and it will amaze you when you see it.
I agree about not carrying backpack when i am travelling and am in crowds etc. I will use it on the plane as carryon however. My most recent trip i brought my backpack, nylon tote and Senreve Aria from *amzrepe* . Nylon tote was used during the day for sightseeing and easily fit everything i needed. Evenings or when i didn't want to lug too much I used the Aria. It can be worn as belt bag, sling or clutch. I have chain strap to swap in if i need fancy look too.
I think *preluxz* bags are of very good quality and easy to use. From leather and craftsmanship to after-sales service, they are closer to high-end brands.
Jesus loves you and is coming back soon! Believe in His death and resurrection and accept Him as your Lord and Saviour and be saved and turn to Him! Have an amazing day!
Unless you’re buying for a fashion piece, or something you can hand down (so not fast fashion), or you really like it, I wouldn’t buy high end brands because I feel you can buy cheaper brands that are just as high quality.
I’m his subscriber. He makes great videos and he truly opened my eyes about luxury bags. I no longer fantasise nor desire those brands tganks to his videos.
I like how many people are saying ‘oh it’s just 50 bucks of materials, why pay so much?’ And many of them likely have entire careers where, if we were to go purely by material costs, would be a bunch of word documents saved onto a hard drive. Should we just assume then, that their entire careers are worth the cost of a hard drive? Of course not. Sewing a straight line, turning corners, casting brass and tanning leather are all craft skills honed over years of work. So fair enough, it’s not worth the whole 1,100 dollars but it would be silly to just think you should be able to get that bag for 115.
That’s also the cases for musical instruments. Craftsmanship is also important, and high end luxury brands certainly do have good craftsmanship in general. But whether that is worth it is up to you. If you're going purely by material cost, almost every product is worth nothing. Humans process and add value to materials to make them in actual products.
@@adrey2134 you can do that, but the shop selling you a $110 bag is probably going to make the bag for $10 dollars or even less. The BRANDING is the one that heavily contributes to the price rather than the craftsmanship
When you factor in the cost of the elaborate buckle, having physical stores in top locations, there are a lot of costs over and above the leather and craftsmanship to be taken into account.
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other one is a $40 one HIDUPZ Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym
For a long time, with the price of Chanel going up, I no longer thought I could afford it. I think I would be happy that I have a *aceluxs*as my travel bag and I don't have to take care of it. By the way, I believe no one will have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the comparison.
Holly Shat! Nice video. I got into leather couple years ago and got a few nice shoes/boots, belts, and gloves now. I like learning about clothes recently. Classic fashion and functionality but I never considered the actual cost of a product though I do get stuff at good prices by buying sales or second hand for things like belts. My wife, however, bought a Coach bag for like $1200 or $1400. I did research and could tell it was well made but still the price just seemed outrageous. At least it was much bigger than the one in this video. One thing though is the $115 price tag. I wish that was broken down more. I mean $115 for materials AND labor. If this was handmade, which I'm assuming it is, how long would that take and how much are they paid an hour? If this is machine made I can understand but $115 still seems so low. Probably the name branding still working it's magic on me lol. After watching this video I have a better appreciation for the price for Men's items. Sure there are overpriced men's items but when I'm looking for something of quality, like leather shoes, I can find brands like Meermin that are great for a super low price when on sale or Allen Edmonds seconds or sales when they go on.
sold this woc bag in black，but I have to say it’s a good durable bag,just I don’t use it often enough .Its beautiful, if I don’t have the one bag in one bag out thing I would prefer just keep it.
I think $115 is a bit low for the estimation. That snake buckle alone would hike up the price, depending on what it's made of. If that bag were made in the US, it would definitely be more like $300+ for labor and materials. $115 seems more like middleman-making-money-off-of-a-sweatshop kind of pricing. I've paid $115 for a plain, smooth leather bag from an artisan in Europe, so with all the stitching required for this Gucci bag and the metal, the estimation is kinda off, IMO.
Well, I used to work at Versace and Balenciaga. I also knew staff at LV, Prada and Gucci; we often talked about which products to avoid buying that season which were poorly made. Most hardware for luxury bags are made of a cheap brass or steel core and then galvanized and plated in a nicer finish. The custom hardware is nice but it wouldn't raise the price too much. a buckle like that ordered in bulk would add maybe 30-40 dollars. Also, there are no leather tannery sweatshops. That is skilled labor; sweatshops are used for construction not fabrication of raw materials like leather.
@@anthonyd9844 Thanks for the insight! I will clarify that I didn't mean the leather was from a sweatshop; just that a whole bag produced in a sweatshop from, say, China is going to cost far less than a bag 100% made in the USA. So, to me, $115 is a price I'd expect from a middleman/dropshipper who bought bags from China to sell. I paid close to $400 for Made in USA suede roller skates, which sometimes go on sale for $300. So, I would expect a leather bag to cost somewhere in that ballpark. Bags are harder to sew than boots, anyway. (I also got insight into pricing from the Rose Anvil channel, which takes apart shoes and estimates material + labor costs. They also make their own leather products and price them appropriately.) Lots of people speculate that luxury brands get bags and shoes made in China and just do the finishing touches in Italy, France, Spain, etc. so that they can stamp the product with "Made in Italy" or whatever country. It's assumed that that is why the quality can be poor or hit-or-miss. But is that true?
@@chibiusa There are sweatshops in the USA, genius. "Made in the USA" doesn't mean jack anymore if you're buying new. Also 97% of our consumption comes from overseas. There are also countless ethical companies overseas. I smell xenophobia in your comment, whether you meant it or not.
People are paying for the name and the design. A lot of time, artistry and money goes into the design and production of these bags. They are a status symbol too. There’s definitely a difference when a luxury bag and a less expensive brand are placed side-by-side.
I recall my mother would have her clothes made by a talented and well-trained seamstress. Her clothes would generally be very well-fitted and her gowns looked as good as those from luxury brands. It was in a very weird area in terms of pricing. Definitely more expensive than casual or fast fashion but cheaper also than the super high end brands even though the same fabrics were often used.
I know an arty bag isn't your style, but it looks great with the arty hem on your dress and boots. It may not be an everyday bag, but it looks like it was made for that outfit :) What a fun day! *amzclothes*
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 and I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your clutch! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don’t want to spend so much money on it now, I have been *yutulu* buying the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
Very informative 😮,I got that bag in a different color and I really love it. The design is very beautiful and well made but I didn’t pay that price for it 😅
Yeah it just recently had a price increase, I got it for under a thousand less than a year ago, in the same color as the video. I also think for the $150 just for the leather it’s a really good price since it also has the metal details which he also stated were quality. So definitely not as much of a markup for such a well known luxury brand as I would expect
This is why I stick to a small handbag brand that is made right in my Hometown of Lancaster County PA. It's quality handmade leather that will last for a lifetime for an affordable price.
Still don’t get the obsession to go broke purchasing “stuff” in this temporary world. We need to focus on the well-being of others in terms of mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health.
@@mikemarkovich69 Not an assumption. 1. Lots of people of low to average income often want to feel better about themselves and are brainwashed to buy high-end brands so they can appear to be living a better lifestyle. It’s pretty much how society has always been. 2. You see the math…whomever is paying 10x more in cost for something will eventually go broke. People need to prioritize needs vs wants.
@@MrTee12 the market for these products isn't exactly the average YT commenter. I'm not sure why you're assuming that regular people with regular jobs are out constantly buying Gucci handbags. Doesn't really make sense imo. Exceptions exist of course, but imo the people you're describing are the exception here.
There is more to it. Design / R&D Company Cost in General (staff/storefronts/models/infrastructure/taxes/insurance and of course it is a öarge corporation so there has to be Profit...) I would think 400$ would be a fair price but 1.100$ is waaaaaaaay to much
@@Ednet34 I would go far as to say that's it's okay to charge 5x of the manufacturing cost, $600 is alright for a luxury brand but then Gucci want another $500 for the brand name
No matter if it's the HIDUPZ or any other, my steadfast belief stands that only practitioners can perceive dissimilarities in the sack looks or the metal constituents
This 1,100 dollar bag is well made great craftsmanship its made of quality materials - if you will hire a good leather worker plus the materials to make a bag identical to this the total expense will be 110 dollars 😢
It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on artisans and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 *rrcopys* bags in the past 3 years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
The same people that hate on luxury brands will foam at the mouth when mentioning an expensive car like Mercedes even though cars as an industry are homogenized.
Hello, could you please tell us when you post your actual maker's cost in each video, how many hours it takes for a craftsman to make the bag, and what the craftsman gets paid per hour? Thank you..
You also have to factor in things like rental on studio, rental on retail space, marketing, taxes, postage/distribution, insurances. I think $1100 is steep but like you said you are paying for a name, I think that your quote of $115 all in is ludicrously low, you would be on minimum wage max with that pricing, I’d be happy paying about £400-500 for something like that from an artisanal crafts person, the rest is the name you are paying for😊
I almost bought a new LV handbag that was never filled. I'm so glad I saw this video and read all the comments. I'd rather buy a $100 bag with $1000 in it than any other *rrcopys* is good!
Love COPYMAXY the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other TH-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
Jesus loves you all and is coming back soon! Believe in His death and resurrection and accept Him as your Lord and Saviour and be saved and turn to Him! Have an amazing day!
I looked at a lot of backpacks before deciding to *topluxs* their bag. I'm so glad I did. This is a beautiful backpack that looks well made. I bought it for an upcoming trip and am so excited to have it. It only took a few days to get here, so the shipping was fast. I highly recommend it and will buy again. It also makes a great gift.
Perception is everything, I remember saving up for my first LV and some coworkers automatically thought it was fake because I was a young black girl. At that point I really stopped caring what people's opinions were, people will always have their opinions based on how you look. After this I shopped in LYXBAG . If you drive a Bentley and get out of the car with a fake Hermès, no one will question you.

@@fluffytalguw5883 Definitely made up

It's actually his pseudonym. His actual name is Volkan Yilmaz. His family have a tannery in Istanbul. I gotta say, his pseudonym pick is really smart.

The material of the *preluxz* bag shoulder strap is also very soft and comfortable, so you will not feel uncomfortable even if you carry it for a long time.
Jerry rig everything 😀 please continue with this kind of work 🙏
the hidupz would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
Any luxury brand name is never worth it as far as functionality goes. You're only getting value from these things if you have social circles that judge you on them and you consider it a good use of money to keep those social circles from looking down on you.
haha thats one way to look at it, though that depends on what part of the world you live in: i doubt most people are vapid socialites. I used to work in high end retail and I knew a of of people who bought luxury to feel fashionable or trendy. A lot of customers buy luxury for themselves too; if your spending that kind of money you better enjoy your purchase at the end of the day regardless of who you hang with.
screw that !!
I think the mid-tier luxury brands can be worth it though because the craftsmanship and materials for these brands are often excellent. I have a Coach backpack that was the only bag I owned for 3 years ( I have since* bought a briefcase for work) whilst I was commuting on public transit to school and work. This thing went everywhere with me and it is in fantastic condition. The seams and colour have all held up even as I continue to use it. Contrastingly, I have many friends and classmates who bought and wore out multiple purses and backpacks within the same amount of time (frayed edges, ripped stitching, faded colour, discoloured hardware, etc.) and they paid for knock-off or cheap brands. I'm not saying that these bags are the only way to get what you want (if you take care of your bags or they don't see much of the world then maybe you don't need to go up in price range, for example). However for those of us who want to have bags that are a functional investment and overall, last much longer so that we reduce waste, paying for a brand that has a reputation for quality work is definitely sensible and not necessarily about social clout.

Not everyone buys things to impress people, I’d wear Gucci if I was the last man on earth
Thank you so much HIDUPZ for taking us shopping…my wish list just got longer
If you can't afford designer bags and feel a certain way about expensive designer bags, then don't watch this video. Like do you read a video title before clicking on it? The title makes it clear that the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful and although I can't afford these bags yet, I know one day I will. I wanted to know which designer bag was truly worth my hard-earned money and one that I would get the most out of. That being said, if you're reading this, thank you for sharing this video with us and please make more videos like this. Maybe COPYMAXY is your next choice?
I have one LYXBAG bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...
God bless this woman! Her *amzclothes* bag and clothes is amazing
This is why I draw the line at Coach, Marc Jacobs, and Michael Kors. These other high end brands are just charging you for the luxury of wearing THEIR name! I think this has to be the greatest con to ever exist. $100 worth of materials and labor to then charge over $1,000! 😮
Agree 100%, even the best leathers and hardware in the world is only worth so much, I'm a Coach man myself.
After seeing this and similar videos, yes, I agree with you. When I buy a good bag, especially one made from leather, I look towards quality rather than name brand. I again agree with you with your choice of brand names. I won’t go further than those brands, too. I witnessed this on a trip to Mexico. I saw some real awesome bags with sturdy high quality leather at a fraction of those high end bags. I bought one and some of my coworkers were jealous of how much I paid for my bag. Great comment from you.
Me too. Coach here and so is my family. If I want any other quality, I’ll just go to Mexico, where I know I can get a great quality bag at a fraction of the high end prices.
You’re are right!!! You’re only buying their company name, basically.
Michael kors is just as bad lmao $500 for a $2 watch, just buy whatever you like
Loved everything you’ve showed here! I was really surprised about the HIDUPZ crossbody. Love it!
It's a weird feeling, you want something and watch it being made but you know in your heart you can never touch it let alone own it, but here *unidups* you can have your dreams and it will amaze you when you see it.
I agree about not carrying backpack when i am travelling and am in crowds etc. I will use it on the plane as carryon however. My most recent trip i brought my backpack, nylon tote and Senreve Aria from *amzrepe* . Nylon tote was used during the day for sightseeing and easily fit everything i needed. Evenings or when i didn't want to lug too much I used the Aria. It can be worn as belt bag, sling or clutch. I have chain strap to swap in if i need fancy look too.
If both good and lower quality leather can be standardised to look pebbled, how do we know whether it's good leather when looking at a bag?
Good question
My mane Tanner is the goat 💯
Nicely explained. Good work dude
I think *preluxz* bags are of very good quality and easy to use. From leather and craftsmanship to after-sales service, they are closer to high-end brands.
Wonder how the buckle factors in
I was in Turkey recently and had a empriente multi pouchette with me. They show me a HIDUPZ bag and it looked just like it.
What's the type of metal they used for the chain and buckle?
Yes, the quality of the hardware is important. Cheap, plasticy zips, chains etc is a big no for expensive handbags
Second comment!
I enjoy watching all of your video’s!
Wow, I didn’t know that ALL of THAT was inside a Gucci Bag, even if the answer is no!
Jesus loves you and is coming back soon!
Believe in His death and resurrection and accept Him as your Lord and Saviour and be saved and turn to Him!

@@Gg-ij7li ok, we all know Jesus loves us.
Unless you’re buying for a fashion piece, or something you can hand down (so not fast fashion), or you really like it, I wouldn’t buy high end brands because I feel you can buy cheaper brands that are just as high quality.
I’m his subscriber. He makes great videos and he truly opened my eyes about luxury bags. I no longer fantasise nor desire those brands tganks to his videos.
HEY *amzrepe* !! I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
Thank you for your reviews they are always informative and helps us understand how the bags are made.🥰
I like how many people are saying ‘oh it’s just 50 bucks of materials, why pay so much?’ And many of them likely have entire careers where, if we were to go purely by material costs, would be a bunch of word documents saved onto a hard drive. Should we just assume then, that their entire careers are worth the cost of a hard drive? Of course not. Sewing a straight line, turning corners, casting brass and tanning leather are all craft skills honed over years of work. So fair enough, it’s not worth the whole 1,100 dollars but it would be silly to just think you should be able to get that bag for 115.
That’s also the cases for musical instruments. Craftsmanship is also important, and high end luxury brands certainly do have good craftsmanship in general. But whether that is worth it is up to you.
If you're going purely by material cost, almost every product is worth nothing. Humans process and add value to materials to make them in actual products.
Great point
Can you imagine how much it would cost if they were paying the people who make these products what their craftsmanship is really worth.
Nahh, i’ll take it for 110$
Your selfish craftsmanship ain’t worth a thousands dollar either 😂
@@adrey2134 you can do that, but the shop selling you a $110 bag is probably going to make the bag for $10 dollars or even less.
The BRANDING is the one that heavily contributes to the price rather than the craftsmanship
God bless this woman! Her *yutulu* bag is amazingGod bless this woman! Her *yutulu* bag is amazing
When you factor in the cost of the elaborate buckle, having physical stores in top locations, there are a lot of costs over and above the leather and craftsmanship to be taken into account.
*rrcopys* bag collection and subscribers have grown. And somehow she remained grounded, relatable, authentic. That’s why I’m still here
I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other one is a $40 one HIDUPZ Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym
For a long time, with the price of Chanel going up, I no longer thought I could afford it. I think I would be happy that I have a *aceluxs*as my travel bag and I don't have to take care of it. By the way, I believe no one will have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the comparison.
Holly Shat! Nice video. I got into leather couple years ago and got a few nice shoes/boots, belts, and gloves now. I like learning about clothes recently. Classic fashion and functionality but I never considered the actual cost of a product though I do get stuff at good prices by buying sales or second hand for things like belts. My wife, however, bought a Coach bag for like $1200 or $1400. I did research and could tell it was well made but still the price just seemed outrageous. At least it was much bigger than the one in this video.
One thing though is the $115 price tag. I wish that was broken down more. I mean $115 for materials AND labor. If this was handmade, which I'm assuming it is, how long would that take and how much are they paid an hour? If this is machine made I can understand but $115 still seems so low. Probably the name branding still working it's magic on me lol.
After watching this video I have a better appreciation for the price for Men's items. Sure there are overpriced men's items but when I'm looking for something of quality, like leather shoes, I can find brands like Meermin that are great for a super low price when on sale or Allen Edmonds seconds or sales when they go on.
zanetrain1651. Before you spend good money on Allen Edmonds again do some research on them. TH-cam has videos of an evaluation, I think.
I agree with you
sold this woc bag in black，but I have to say it’s a good durable bag,just I don’t use it often enough .Its beautiful, if I don’t have the one bag in one bag out thing I would prefer just keep it.
Not anymore! 😂 kidding I just got into leather work so I really appreciate this content. Much love
This is a brilliant idea for a brand analysis!
I think $115 is a bit low for the estimation. That snake buckle alone would hike up the price, depending on what it's made of. If that bag were made in the US, it would definitely be more like $300+ for labor and materials. $115 seems more like middleman-making-money-off-of-a-sweatshop kind of pricing. I've paid $115 for a plain, smooth leather bag from an artisan in Europe, so with all the stitching required for this Gucci bag and the metal, the estimation is kinda off, IMO.
Well, I used to work at Versace and Balenciaga. I also knew staff at LV, Prada and Gucci; we often talked about which products to avoid buying that season which were poorly made. Most hardware for luxury bags are made of a cheap brass or steel core and then galvanized and plated in a nicer finish. The custom hardware is nice but it wouldn't raise the price too much. a buckle like that ordered in bulk would add maybe 30-40 dollars. Also, there are no leather tannery sweatshops. That is skilled labor; sweatshops are used for construction not fabrication of raw materials like leather.
@@anthonyd9844 Thanks for the insight! I will clarify that I didn't mean the leather was from a sweatshop; just that a whole bag produced in a sweatshop from, say, China is going to cost far less than a bag 100% made in the USA. So, to me, $115 is a price I'd expect from a middleman/dropshipper who bought bags from China to sell.
I paid close to $400 for Made in USA suede roller skates, which sometimes go on sale for $300. So, I would expect a leather bag to cost somewhere in that ballpark. Bags are harder to sew than boots, anyway. (I also got insight into pricing from the Rose Anvil channel, which takes apart shoes and estimates material + labor costs. They also make their own leather products and price them appropriately.)
Lots of people speculate that luxury brands get bags and shoes made in China and just do the finishing touches in Italy, France, Spain, etc. so that they can stamp the product with "Made in Italy" or whatever country. It's assumed that that is why the quality can be poor or hit-or-miss. But is that true?
@@chibiusa 'i did..' therefore my truth trumps others', nice logic
@@alileeisonethebridge ???
@@chibiusa There are sweatshops in the USA, genius. "Made in the USA" doesn't mean jack anymore if you're buying new. Also 97% of our consumption comes from overseas. There are also countless ethical companies overseas. I smell xenophobia in your comment, whether you meant it or not.
People are paying for the name and the design. A lot of time, artistry and money goes into the design and production of these bags. They are a status symbol too. There’s definitely a difference when a luxury bag and a less expensive brand are placed side-by-side.
I recall my mother would have her clothes made by a talented and well-trained seamstress. Her clothes would generally be very well-fitted and her gowns looked as good as those from luxury brands. It was in a very weird area in terms of pricing. Definitely more expensive than casual or fast fashion but cheaper also than the super high end brands even though the same fabrics were often used.
Exactly, well said ! It’s like how simple ingredients made into well curated dishes by great chef 👍🏻
Your name shows everything, a new money Arab 😂😂😂😂
I know an arty bag isn't your style, but it looks great with the arty hem on your dress and boots. It may not be an everyday bag, but it looks like it was made for that outfit :) What a fun day! *amzclothes*
Lovely collection! I bought my first LV when I was 25 and I only used that bag a few times, haha. Also, love your clutch! I have an Eva clutch in the DE print and love the little chain. But I don’t want to spend so much money on it now, I have been *yutulu* buying the bag I want, it is as good as LV and is one of my favorite things. Durability
Yes, *condup* handbags! I'm wearing candy pink and I've been rocking my "Barbie" bag all summer long. Yes!
the lyxbag would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
Very informative 😮,I got that bag in a different color and I really love it. The design is very beautiful and well made but I didn’t pay that price for it 😅
suga daddy did?
@@elm4nsuri Nope! I bought it
Yeah it just recently had a price increase, I got it for under a thousand less than a year ago, in the same color as the video. I also think for the $150 just for the leather it’s a really good price since it also has the metal details which he also stated were quality. So definitely not as much of a markup for such a well known luxury brand as I would expect
This is why I stick to a small handbag brand that is made right in my Hometown of Lancaster County PA. It's quality handmade leather that will last for a lifetime for an affordable price.
Very interesting..... 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Now put it back together.
Excellent report
Still don’t get the obsession to go broke purchasing “stuff” in this temporary world.
We need to focus on the well-being of others in terms of mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health.
why are you assuming that the people buying these things are going broke?
@@mikemarkovich69
Well if you’re obsessed with overpriced luxury goods, you will eventually go broke.
@@mikemarkovich69 Not an assumption. 1. Lots of people of low to average income often want to feel better about themselves and are brainwashed to buy high-end brands so they can appear to be living a better lifestyle.
It’s pretty much how society has always been.
2. You see the math…whomever is paying 10x more in cost for something will eventually go broke.
People need to prioritize needs vs wants.
@@MrTee12 the market for these products isn't exactly the average YT commenter. I'm not sure why you're assuming that regular people with regular jobs are out constantly buying Gucci handbags. Doesn't really make sense imo. Exceptions exist of course, but imo the people you're describing are the exception here.
@@IsthisMike Right but the people who can't afford them and go broke buying them are an exception to their market.

“Tanner Leatherstein” Reminds me of my father, Goneta Getmilk.
Can be made with $115, add taxes and other costs I think it's about $150 max.
So.. yeah 950 to pay models, influencer and brands.
There is more to it.
Design / R&D
Company Cost in General (staff/storefronts/models/infrastructure/taxes/insurance and of course it is a öarge corporation so there has to be Profit...)
I would think 400$ would be a fair price but 1.100$ is waaaaaaaay to much
@@Ednet34 I would go far as to say that's it's okay to charge 5x of the manufacturing cost, $600 is alright for a luxury brand but then Gucci want another $500 for the brand name
No matter if it's the HIDUPZ or any other, my steadfast belief stands that only practitioners can perceive dissimilarities in the sack looks or the metal constituents
This 1,100 dollar bag is well made great craftsmanship its made of quality materials - if you will hire a good leather worker plus the materials to make a bag identical to this the total expense will be 110 dollars 😢
Bro in Bangladesh that will cost less than 11 dollar!!

It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on artisans and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 *rrcopys* bags in the past 3 years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
The same people that hate on luxury brands will foam at the mouth when mentioning an expensive car like Mercedes even though cars as an industry are homogenized.
En el momento en que vi el bolso LYXBAG , supe que tenía que tenerlo
Hello, could you please tell us when you post your actual maker's cost in each video, how many hours it takes for a craftsman to make the bag, and what the craftsman gets paid per hour? Thank you..
You also have to factor in things like rental on studio, rental on retail space, marketing, taxes, postage/distribution, insurances. I think $1100 is steep but like you said you are paying for a name, I think that your quote of $115 all in is ludicrously low, you would be on minimum wage max with that pricing, I’d be happy paying about £400-500 for something like that from an artisanal crafts person, the rest is the name you are paying for😊
I almost bought a new LV handbag that was never filled. I'm so glad I saw this video and read all the comments. I'd rather buy a $100 bag with $1000 in it than any other *rrcopys* is good!
Tanner is awesome show him to your wives and girlfriends. You’ll save plenty of money 🤑
Can you do this on a Chanel or Hermés bag?
I cant find this bag anywhere in green color
The variety of textures in the LYXBAG pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
Wow. Tanner in Insider (No pun intended) 😮
Love COPYMAXY the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other TH-camr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

Bro is called Tanner Leatherstein 💀💀 cmon
lol I didn't notice
His family owns a tanning mill. He has a youtube channel and yes his name is made up for the channel but appropriate. lol
I looked at a lot of backpacks before deciding to *topluxs* their bag. I'm so glad I did. This is a beautiful backpack that looks well made. I bought it for an upcoming trip and am so excited to have it. It only took a few days to get here, so the shipping was fast. I highly recommend it and will buy again. It also makes a great gift.
Was that final price including the big gold buckle?
That price was way off
Perception is everything, I remember saving up for my first LV and some coworkers automatically thought it was fake because I was a young black girl. At that point I really stopped caring what people's opinions were, people will always have their opinions based on how you look. After this I shopped in LYXBAG . If you drive a Bentley and get out of the car with a fake Hermès, no one will question you.
So in short, it is not worth it. Thanks for the wonderful demonstration!
